We know that one of the biggest problems facing Android is fragmentation.
Google knows that too.
That's why it announced the Android Update Alliance at Google I/O in May. The alliance is made up of a bunch of smartphone manufacturers and is supposed to make sure phones stay up to date when Google releases new versions of Android.
The alliance also pledges to keep phones update for at least 18 months.
So how are they doing? Android And Me conducted a great study breaking down all the Android phones out now and the versions they're running.
As the chart below shows, manufacturers are still pretty slow to update their phones to the latest version of Android, 2.3 Gingerbread. Many are still running version 2.2 or earlier. And in many cases, it took several months for manufacturers to finally get to Gingerbread.
Check out the chart below for a breakdown. Then click here to read the complete study with even more charts and graphs >
